new British system it was proposed to make the mill the unit, dividing the sovereign into 1000 mills; then the half-sovereign would equal 500 mills; the crown 250 mills; the double florin, POO mills; the half-crovn, 125 mills; the florin, 100 mills; the shil- ling, 50 mills; and the sixpence, p mills. In Wiesbaden step in deci- nal time- keeping has been taken. A new clock divides the day into ten decades, the decade into ten minutes, the minute into ten seconds, and the second into ten rays. Similar units will take the place of the usual degrees, minutes and seconds in the division of the circle. It is further proposed to divide the year into ten months-the even ones of 36, the un- even of 37 days each.

A Summer Girl.
San Francisco Chronicle.

A little picture. They sat on the upturned bottom of a broken boat. The silvered path of glory stretched across the restless waters up nearly to their feet. They had fallen into si- lence. No moment was it then to speak of base ball or of scandal. He was overcome with that tender pas sion which thrives in moonlight. That glorious moonlight that levels all complexions and makes the freckled girl as pretty as the rose-cheeked maiden! That happy moonlight un- der whose mystic influence lovers take bliss in by the pores. He grew fervent. He clasped her hand. She gave him back gentle pressure.
 "Tell me-" he whispered, with the hoarseness of emotion, whispered as if he feared the murmuring surf might catch the question and bear it to some other ears. "Tell me, have you ever loved?"
 She trembled. She hesitated for a moment, and he thought he felt her blushes glow into his eyes. She trembled, and in still, soft whisper, gentle as the summer breeze, an- swered:
 "Not this summer"

FRIGHTFUL STATE OF SOCIETY.
 Exchange.

The following is an extract from a private letter from St. Petersburg ad- dressed to Russian residing in St. Paul:
 ''You are happy man. On the free American soil you would not believe that we feel like living in large prison. Nobody is safe here. Spies on every corner and in every house, and wholesale arrests are the regular order of the day. Nobody is surprised when he sees young men and women arrested and led by gen Fa,mes to the fortress. To be surprised in itself is crime punishable with banishment. The other day an old gentleman, while waiting for train at one of the rail- way stations, saw how a batch of in- telligent young people were being closely watched by dozen detectives and police officers. The prisoners had just arrived from the Peter Paul for tress, and, as usual, were on their way to Siberia. Looking at the worn-out, honest faces of the young prisoners the old man was unable to restrain himself; he began to weep, and at- tracted the attention of the detectives. His arrest followed, and it is said he died in prison.
 "A dark cloud hangs over this country, but the flashes of lightning that illuminate the sky from time to time are the forerunners of terrible thunderstorm. We all place great re- liance on the army. The officers are outraged at the way they are being treated-the arrests of army officers average six a day. The army will sooner or later redeem Russia from the curse of the Romanoffs. The uni versailles and colleges are getting emp tier and emptier all the time. The students go either to prison or flee to Switzerland, and a perfect mania of emigration has seized the upper classes. During the last week of April fourteen families with whom I was acquainted left for France. The government is now thinking of taxing those of it's subjects who live in for elgn countries ten roubles a week each, and in case of the non- payment Of the tax, to declare them exiles for ever in other words, to make their return to Russia impossible.
 "The trial of twenty three persons accused of participation in the mur- der of Colonel Sudekin, will begin in the last days of this month (May). The trial of Ossipanoff and others who were implicated in the last attempt against the czar, has shown that the praises bestowed upon the police were undeserved. The police did not have the slightest knowledge of the contemplated attempt until an hour after the arrest of Ossipanoff. March l2 the czar, accompanied by detectives and Cossacks, passed the bridge known as the Police bridge in St. Petersburg. Ossipanoff was there, but he failed to throw the bomb he had with him in time. His suspicious movements were noticed, and he was taken to police headquarters. There in the presence of at least forty persons he took out bomb from his pocket and threw it on the floor. Unfortunately it did not explode. The claim that nihilist committees have been discovered in St. Petersburg, Wilma, Charkoff and Siberia is not true. There are nihilists now in Russia everywhere; but no police in the world would be able to discover them.

The various flags stored in Wash ington would make beautiful bonfires. and they should all be cremated next fourth of July. The flag of the Union is good enough. The flags of states have made trouble. States fighters would put them above the national flags. That is wrong. The true Amer ican wants one flag and one country. and he cannot have too much of either.
 If he gets out of flags at any time, he can order more from Ben Buffers bunting factory.--Neso Orzeans Pic asfssee.

ing French scientific men. In the first. lighted candle is placed behind a bottle, and the latter is blown upon with the breath from a distance of about foot. The meeting of the air currents set in motion around the bot tie quickly extinguishes the flame, though extinction would be impossible if flat board or sheet of cardboard were substituted for the bottle. For the second experiment two bottles are placed on table with space of half an inch between them. The candle is set behind this space, and from the same distance as before, on the oppo- site, the breath is blown smartly against the flame. Not only will the latter continue burning, but it will incline slightly toward the operator as if through the effect of suction. This phenomenon, analogous to the first, is due to the fact that a portion of the air cannot pass between the bottles and is forced around them and back toward the experimenter.
 DECIMAL MoNEY AND DECIMAL TINE. The Metric system of weights and measures having been almost univer- sally recognized, may it not be hoped that a uniform decimal currency and a decimal system of measure ment will follow ere long and gain general adoption?
